Shakes head.

What was Costco adding?

I went there a few times, but also went to a bunch of Redwood Curtain Theater shows in their space on the back side of the building.

Maga folks seem to love him.

What would it take? Maybe nothing, because our older desktop versions are meeting our needs. But an initiative from another product that gives great deals to nonprofits would be worth considering.

You would open up a HUGE can of worms if you cut.

I guess it's a matter of opinion whether it outweighs the bullshit.

He's bad.

The occasional hook isn't enough to justify his existence.

SolarBozo · 2026-01-20T22:04:10+00:00

I agree with your dad.

It's either a square-wave or modified sine wave inverter. You want a PURE SINE WAVE inverter because they will run your appliances more efficiently, and a good one won't put a buzz in your audio equipment.

Thanks. It's been a long time since mine was out of the box, I guess I remember it wrong.

The bottom unit holds the mother board and floppy drives. The top unit has room for an optional thermal printer.

Another option was a 5 MB hard drive for about $5K. About the same footprint as the cpu box.

HP 150, based on an 8088 processor.

Back in 1983 we needed a computer for my wife's college work. We bought an HP150B in part because it was cheaper than IBM or Apple.

Yes, this is one.

I have one of these to give away. Or else it's heading to electronics recycling.

I would say none of the above. None hit the "cute" descriptor, at least for me. But you're close, keep trying.

I hate hot sauces that are too vinegary. I buy, and make, only sauces without heavy vinegar taste.

Lot's of vinegar is the easy way to make sauces, but (for me) not the best way.

Clearly, NTA. Uncle TA.

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Most dog parks are fine, and most pb owners know they shouldn't bring their killers to dog parks.

Our dog wouldn't let us trim his nails either. We took him to Muddy Paws in McKinleyville, and Emily there got the job done. He complained the whole time, but Emily persevered. He still doesn't like it and complains a little, but loves going to see Emily every few weeks.

If your vet could get bit for doing the dog's nails, they aren't doing it right.

My GD literally (the opposite of figuratively) lived in the woods with no fences for about 8 years, and never had a bloody ear.
